"Yes...you do reholster an empty gun on the match range.....but we also do it at the academies (99% of the time). It is one of those things that are done for safety, because sadly you always have to assume that there is "that one guy" who isn't safe with a loaded pistol outside the shooting box. BUT...as I have said...a blend of competition and training and working on mindset will cure that."

Agreed, This was exactly the point I was making.
